good looking climbing

Were you using two tools here or just making do with the mountaineering axe?

Re: good looking climbing

You pretty much had to use two tools because the ice was honey combed and you couldn't put much weight on one tool with out it cutting right through the ice. You really had to place both tools before you could pull yourself up. It was actually pretty scary climbing, especially when we had heard so many stories of guys falling here and sliding all the way down the face.
